The development of rigid polyurethane insulation began in the 1930’s when its unique combination of being a low density and rigid material, and having excellent water resistance was utilised for improving buoyancy in the marine industry.
Subsequent recognition of its very low thermal conductivity and high resistance to oil and chemicals (e.g. styrene), led to its commercial development in the thermal insulation industry.
Kingspan Technical Insulation can provide high performance industrial insulation suitable for use in temperature and hygiene controlled environments, refrigerated vehicles and many OEM applications.
